This becomes especially true during the winter time. When it's cold outside, my days tend to be chock full of working late, eating too many take-out meals, and neglecting the gym. Yeah, maybe that's the reason for the sleepiness. Oops.

Instead of using unrealistic cleanses and diets to get back on track this new year, I have a different solution: calm your body down with foods that heal it! That way, your mind will be in a soothed, happy, energized place. I don't know about you, but it's much easier for me to exercise when I feel that way.

Add these 10 superstars to your diet slowly to fight inflammation and its energy-zapping side effects. These powerhouses should replace the culprit foods — like red meat, white sugar and flour, fried foods, and synthetic sweeteners found in packaged meals — that unnecessarily rev up the body's inflammatory response. With these foods in your fridge, you'll be a blissful babe by spring.
